I want to preview my website by manipulating the hosts file, linking to the server's URL but it's not working - My browser always tells me "the connection has been reset during page load".
What am I doing wrong? I edited my hosts file like many tutorials out there suggest and I checked (wireshark) that the browser connects to the correct IP (that of my server).
Yet, I can't see anything of my website...?

Make sure the IP you put into your host file is the one Plesk is actually using. This is an easy mistake to make if your server has multiple IP addresses.
Also, make sure you put domain.com and not just domain.com in your host file. It will need to match exactly to what you wish to test with.
If you have a later version of Plesk with the Nginx proxy. Try turning it off for testing.
Based on your error this could be the problem.
Lastly, clear your browser's cache. I've seen the Plesk default page get cached and give
odd results.
